Truly Open Publishing

At Researchers' Journal of Internal Medicine, we believe that scientific publications should be driven by collaboration, not paywalls or profit. Too often, the work of researchers and reviewers—offered generously and in good faith—is locked behind expensive access fees or article-processing charges.

We’re changing that. Our journal is built on a new model that values transparency, accessibility, and fairness. We offer honorariums to both authors and peer reviewers in recognition of their vital contributions, and we remain committed to keeping science truly open:

Free to submit. Free to publish. Free to read.

A New Way To Publish

Pragmatic Publishing

  1. Submit your research in any format for desk review.

  2. Our editorial board screens for quality and fit.

  3. If approved, you’ll reformat and resubmit for full review.

  4. Choose standard (free) or priority ($50) processing. Priority includes:

    • Fast-track editorial attention

    • $20 honorarium for peer reviewers

    • Full formatting service for your article

  5. Peer reviewers can accept their honorarium or donate it to charity.

  6. Every article undergoes rigorous 2+ peer reviews.

  7. Accepted articles qualify for our Author Honorarium Program.

  8. All articles are open access, digital-first, and free to read.

  9. After 3,000 views, authors receive $1 per 1,000 viewers in the first year, or direct it to a nonprofit of their choice.

It's scientific publishing that gives back. Check out our author page for more information.
